Covering Old Trafford
Old Trafford sits 3 miles south-west of Manchester, with Stretford 1 miles to the south-west and Salford 2 miles to the north.
Homes in the North West
The North West has long rows of Victorian terraced houses in its towns and cities, alongside inter-war semis and post-war estates, so rear extensions, dormer lofts and kitchen extensions are common projects.

Do you need permission for kitchen installation in Old Trafford?
Projects in England go through two separate checks. Planning (or confirmation that the work is permitted development) comes from the district, borough or unitary council, and building regulations approval comes from the council’s building control team or a registered building control approver. Where work touches a shared wall or digs near a neighbour’s foundations, the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies.
A new kitchen does not need planning permission. Some electrical work must be notified under building regulations, and gas work must be done by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
What should Old Trafford homeowners check first?
- Worktops in stone or quartz are templated after the units go in, adding a week or two.
- Extraction ducted outside works far better than recirculation.
What happens after I enquire?
